Social activities provide a wealth of benefits - emotional, physical and mental. Time spent connecting with others is important, said Christie Gause-Bemis, a psychotherapist with Central Wisconsin Counseling Associates in Wisconsin Rapids.

"We are biologically wired to form connections with others and our health benefits from the stress-relieving qualities of connectivity," Gause-Bemis said.
